SAS ??
SAS (pronounced "sass")
"statistical analysis system,“ began at
North Carolina State University.

“SAS is a combination of a statistical
package,
a data – base management system, and
a high level programming language”


What Can SAS Do?
 Read and write almost any data
format!
 Powerful data handling language
 Excellent data cleansing functions
 Countless options for output (print,
HTML, excel, PDF etc.)
 Interact with multiple host systems


Need For SAS ?
In today’s world we have large chunks of
data in business and various sectors
which needs to be maintained and this
data seems to be unmanageable .

To maintain data in a presentable format
also where we can analyze and
modify this data is important.

This is where SAS comes to rescue.

What is difference between SAS tool and other
statistical tools.
Why SAS is so popular?

There is a lot of difference between SAS and other tools.
SAS is a tool which is a combination of three basic features.
1) It is a reporting tool.
2) It is a ETL (Extraction ,Transformation, Load) tool and
3) It is also a forecasting tool.
whereas the tools other than SAS like
- consists of the first feature. eg: BUSINESS OBJECTS,
COGNOS.

- consists of the second feature.eg: INFORMATICA.

No other tool has the power of forecasting feature. Hence SAS
is used in mostly Clinical trials and healthcare industry.

SAS in Pharmacy
SAS in Clinical Trials

“Clinical Trial is a Method to determine if a new drug or
treatment will work on disease or will it be beneficial to
patients”

Clinical trials produces huge volume of data
Manual computation is error prone and time consuming

Solution is Statistical software!! SAS
Why SAS Used!!
 SAS Recommended by FDA(Food and Drug
Administration )
 SAS is Robust tool for reporting and Analysis
 SAS available in various Platform and produce High customized
reports.

SAS in Finance

Data Driven in SAS


Base SAS software provides essential tools for the
basic data-driven tasks :

DATA STEP PROC STEP


Accessing Data

you can access data that is stored almost anywhere, whether it is in
a file on your system, or data that is stored another database
system.
In almost any format, including raw data, SAS data sets.

Flat Files(.txt,. CSV)
RDBMS(oracle,db2,Mysql)


Managing Data

After you have accessed your data, you can use the SAS
programming language to manipulate it.

Format your data ,create variables (columns), use operators to
evaluate data values ,use functions to create and recode data
values, subset data, perform conditional processing,


Reporting procedures in SAS
PROC REPORT
PROC PRINT
PROC TABULATE

SAS Program Structure


SAS Program Structure
SAS Program consist of two basic
steps:
 Data Step
 Proc step
1. DATA steps:
It creates and modifies SAS data sets.
Begins with DATA statement
We can use data steps to …
 Enter data into SAS data sets
 Compute Values
 Check or correct data
 Produce new data sets

2. PROC (Procedure) step:

 Starts with proc statement
 Performs specific analysis or functions
 Produce results and reports

Note: To execute SAS Statement need to specify
RUN command.


First SAS Program…
Data dataset_name;
X1 = 1;
X2 =3;
Y =x1+x2;
Run;

Proc print data = dataset_name;
Run;
